IDE for PHP, Ruby on Rails, Python and Javascript – Aptana
Posted on 19. Sep, 2008 by Sajith M.R in php, webworld
After a long searching, i got this IDE , Aptana which satisfies all my requirement. It is just like .net IDE with auto compiling and error displaying system, and come with built in server. You can download it from: http://aptana.com/studio/download
Error display while coding time is its another feature.
Auto filling is another feature.
For oops concepts, it will show the details of method and its parameter while you start a pointer (a dot . or -> )
See example of javascript “document.getEle” function.
A lot of javascirpt buit-in libraries are included.
Features like, console, break point, watch etc are there . There is a special Apatana Ajax Monitor to debug ajax calls.
Download it , and use it. I liked this one than dreamweaver or quanta or PHP Editor
More over the software Aptana is Free !!!

I like the editor(I used Eclipse with Apatna plugin) – but its way too slow for me. Even with 2 GB RAM.

Binny, did you try just the standalone Aptana Studio — could it be that it’s the full Eclipse with Aptana plugged in that takes too much memory, but just Aptana Studio works well for you?
